Bottled. Boring beer. Didn't smell like anything. Didn't taste like anything. This is a beer I could pass off the my macro swill drinking friends. Of course maybe it would switch them over.

Very pleasant. Strong golden color, good grapefruit nose. Refreshing finish.

Bottled. Clear golde color, small lasting white head. Some nice caramel maltiness evident in the nose, but only if you let it warm a bit; too cold and there's a nasty soapiness evident. Not a whole lot to say about the rest: more body and malt than macroswill, but little hops. Yawn.

Bottled, Cherbourg, Massachusetts. The best of the buzzards to be had. Golden, flavoursome, malts and plenty of hops. Despite the attractive looks of their beers, I found Bazzard's beers to be thin and short of the bench mark.

Light gold color. Medium white head. Aroma is fruity, grainy and sweet. A light bodied golden ale. Malts are mild, fruity and sweet. Hops are very mild and may be slightly bitter. This beer is weak and watery even for a golden ale. It’s light and refreshing, and better than Coors. There is really nothing objectionable with this beer, except it almost total lack of flavor. It’s just so mild there is almost no there, there. Mouthfeel is thin. Finish is clean. Aftertaste is very slightly bitter.

Nice head, good lacing, clear yellow-orange. Very light aroma but pleasant. Good balance, malty and crisp finish. I enjoyed this one quite a bit.

Pours a three-fingered white head that goes slowly and leaves a good lace. Clear light, amber color. Light carbonation. Nose has hints of hops. Starts with a hop/malt mix nothing dominates, finishes clean but slightly on the sweet side. Light bodied.

Bottle. Light amber with no real head. A bit of hop with lots of carbonation. Very light. Pretty crappy.
